The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

Congratulations, you’ve discovered one that looks like it ticks all the boxes. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY professional friend believes it’s nice. Do you really have to get it checked?

If you purchase a home without doing a pre inspection prior to purchase but you could end up owning some pretty costly issues that might have been discovered, but you may be severely limiting the ability to claim damages if the house was to be stricken with significant problems.

A pre-purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Omahu building inspector will identify any problems the property has, indicate any future issues, and identify areas that can be improved. This makes sure that home buyers don’t have unpleasant surprises and offers you the chance to negotiate lower price.

We check the entire property and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance problems and issues caused by the gradual loss of quality. We look for structural problems or signs that the property is not in good repair or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
